On dynamics analysis of a new chaotic attractor

In this Letter, a new chaotic system is discussed. Some basic dynamical properties, such as Lyapunov exponents, Poincaré mapping, fractal dimension, bifurcation diagram, continuous spectrum and chaotic dynamical behaviors of the new chaotic system are studied, either numerically or analytically. The obtained results show clearly that the system discussed in this Letter is a new chaotic system and deserves a further detailed investigation.     

A three-scroll chaotic attractor

This Letter introduces a new chaotic member to the three-dimensional smooth autonomous quadratic system family, which derived from the classical Lorenz system but exhibits a three-scroll chaotic attractor. Interestingly, the two other scrolls are symmetry related with respect to the z-axis as for the Lorenz attractor, but the third scroll of this three-scroll chaotic attractor is around the z-axis. Some basic dynamical properties, such as Lyapunov exponents, fractal dimension, Poincaré map and chaotic dynamical behaviors of the new chaotic system are investigated, either numerically or analytically. The obtained results clearly show this is a new chaotic system and deserves further detailed investigation.     

A novel three-dimensional autonomous chaotic system generating two, three and four-scroll attractors

In this Letter a novel three-dimensional autonomous chaotic system is proposed. Of particular interest is that this novel system can generate two, three and four-scroll chaotic attractors with variation of a single parameter. By applying either analytical or numerical methods, basic properties of the system, such as dynamical behaviors (time history and phase diagrams), Poincaré mapping, bifurcation diagram and Lyapunov exponents are investigated to observe chaotic motions. The obtained results clearly show that this is a new chaotic system which deserves further detailed investigation.     

A novel four-wing non-equilibrium chaotic system and its circuit implementation

In this paper, we construct a novel, 4D smooth autonomous system. Compared to the existing chaotic systems, the most attractive point is that this system does not display any equilibria, but can still exhibit four-wing chaotic attractors. The proposed system is investigated through numerical simulations and analyses including time phase portraits, Lyapunov exponents, bifurcation diagram, and Poincaré maps. There is little difference between this chaotic system without equilibria and other chaotic systems with equilibria shown by phase portraits and Lyapunov exponents. But the bifurcation diagram shows that the chaotic systems without equilibria do not have characteristics such as pitchfork bifurcation, Hopf bifurcation etc. which are common to the normal chaotic systems. The Poincaré maps show that this system is a four-wing chaotic system with more complicated dynamics. Moreover, the physical existence of the four-wing chaotic attractor without equilibria is verified by an electronic circuit.     

CHAOTIC AND NON-LINEAR DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF A TWO-AXIS RATE GYRO WITH FEEDBACK CONTROL MOUNTED ON A SPACE VEHICLE

An analysis is presented in this paper for a two-axis rate gyro subjected to linear feedback control mounted on a space vehicle, which is spinning with uncertain angular velocity ω_z(t) about its spin of the gyro. For the autonomous case in which ω_z(t) is steady, the stability analysis of the system is studied by Routh-Hurwitz theory. For the non-autonomous case in which ω_z(t) is sinusoidal function, this system is a strongly non-linear damped system subjected to parametric excitation. By varying the amplitude of sinusoidal motion, periodic and chaotic responses of this parametrically excited non-linear system are investigated using the numerical simulation. Some observations on symmetry-breaking bifurcations, period-doubling bifurcations, and chaotic behavior of the system are investigated by various numerical techniques such as phase portraits, Poincaré maps, average power spectra, and Lyapunov exponents. In addition, some discussions about chaotic motions of this system can be suppressed and changed into regular motions by a suitable constant motor torque are included.     

Earth’s Complexity Is Non-Computable: The Limits of Scaling Laws,Nonlinearity and Chaos

Current physics commonly qualifies the Earth system as ‘complex’ because it includes numerous different processes operating over a large range of spatial scales, often modelled as exhibiting non-linear chaotic response dynamics and power scaling laws. This characterization is based on the fundamental assumption that the Earth’s complexity could, in principle, be modeled by (surrogated by) a numerical algorithm if enough computing power were granted. Yet, similar numerical algorithms also surrogate different systems having the same processes and dynamics, such as Mars or Jupiter, although being qualitatively different from the Earth system. Here, we argue that understanding the Earth as a complex system requires a consideration of the Gaia hypothesis: the Earth is a complex system because it instantiates life—and therefore an autopoietic, metabolic-repair (M,R) organization—at a planetary scale. This implies that the Earth’s complexity has formal equivalence to a self-referential system that inherently is non-algorithmic and, therefore, cannot be surrogated and simulated in a Turing machine. We discuss the consequences of this, with reference to in-silico climate models, tipping points, planetary boundaries, and planetary feedback loops as units of adaptive evolution and selection.     

Generalized Projective Synchronization Between Rössler System and New Unified Chaotic System

Based on symbolic computation system Maple and Lyapunov stability theory, an active control method is used to projectively synchronize two different chaotic systems — Lorenz-Chen-Lü system (LCL) and Rössler system, which belong to different dynamic systems. In this paper, we achieve generalized projective synchronization between the two different chaotic systems by directing the scaling factor onto the desired value arbitrarily. To illustrate our result, numerical simulations are used to perform the process of the synchronization and successfully put the orbits of drive system (LCL) and orbits of the response system (Rössler system) in the same plot for understanding intuitively.     

Asymptotics of activity series at the divergence point

In this article, a simple autonomous transiently chaotic flow with cubic nonlinearities is proposed. This system represents some unusual features such as having a surface of equilibria. We shall describe some dynamical properties and behaviours of this system in terms of eigenvalue structures, bifurcation diagrams, time series, and phase portraits. Various behaviours of this system such as periodic and transiently chaotic dynamics can be shown by setting special parameters in proper values. Our system belongs to a newly introduced category of transiently chaotic systems: systems with hidden attractors. Transiently chaotic behaviour of our proposed system has been implemented and tested by the OrCAD-PSpise software. We have found a proper qualitative similarity between circuit and simulation results.     

A quasi-crisis in a quasi-dissipative system

A system concatenated by two area-preserving maps may be addressed as “quasi-dissipative", since such a system can display dissipative behaviors. This is due to noninvertibility induced by discontinuity in the system function. In such a system, the image set of the discontinuous border forms a chaotic quasi-attractor. At a critical control parameter value the quasi-attractor suddenly vanishes. The chaotic iterations escape, via a leaking hole, to an emergent period-8 elliptic island. The hole is the intersection of the chaotic quasi-attractor and the period-8 island. The chaotic quasi-attractor thus changes to chaotic quasi-transients. The scaling behavior that drives the quasi-crisis has been investigated numerically. Received 29 May 2001 and Received in final form 6 November 2001     

A novel hyperchaotic system and its circuit implementation

A four-dimensional hyperchaotic system with five parameters is proposed. Its dynamical properties such as dissipativity, equilibrium points, Lyapunov exponent, Lyapunov dimension, bifurcation diagrams and Poincare maps are analyzed theoretically and numerically. Theoretical analyses and simulation tests indicate that the new system's dynamics behavior can be periodic attractor, chaotic attractor and hyperchaotic attractor as the parameter varies. Finally, the circuit of this new hyperchaotic system is designed and realized by Multisim software. The simulation results confirm that the chaotic system is different from the existing chaotic systems and is a novel hyperchaotic system. The system is recommendable for many engineering applications such as information processing, cryptology, secure communications, etc.     

The effect of time-delay on anomalous phase synchronization

Anomalous phase synchronization in nonidentical interacting oscillators is manifest as the increase of frequency disorder prior to synchronization. We show that this effect can be enhanced when a time-delay is included in the coupling. In systems of limit-cycle and chaotic oscillators we find that the regions of phase disorder and phase synchronization can be interwoven in the parameter space such that as a function of coupling or time-delay the system shows transitions from phase ordering to disorder and back.     

Dynamical analysis of a new multistable chaotic system with hidden attractor: Antimonotonicity,coexisting multiple attractors,and offset boosting

Analyzing chaotic systems with coexisting and hidden attractors has been receiving much attention recently. In this article, we analyze a four dimensional chaotic system which has a plane as the equilibrium points. Also this system is of the group of systems that have coexisting attractors. First, the system is introduced and then stability analysis, bifurcation diagram and Largest Lyapunov exponent of this system are presented as methods to analyze the multistability of the system. These methods reveal that in some ranges of the parameter, this chaotic system has three different types of coexisting attractors, chaotic, stable node and limit cycle. Some interesting dynamics properties such as reversals of period doubling bifurcation and offset boosting are also presented.

The system is recommendable for many engineering applications such as secure communications, cryptology, information processing, etc.     

Novel four-dimensional autonomous chaotic system generating one-, two-, three- and four-wing attractors

In this paper, we propose a novel four-dimensional autonomous chaotic system. Of particular interest is that this novel system can generate one-, two, three- and four-wing chaotic attractors with the variation of a single parameter, and the multi-wing type of the chaotic attractors can be displayed in all directions. The system is simple with a large positive Lyapunov exponent and can exhibit some interesting and complicated dynamical behaviours. Basic dynamical properties of the four-dimensional chaotic system, such as equilibrium points, the Poincaré map, the bifurcation diagram and the Lyapunov exponents are investigated by using either theoretical analysis or numerical method. Finally, a circuit is designed for the implementation of the multi-wing chaotic attractors. The electronic workbench observations are in good agreement with the numerical simulation results.

The analysis of a novel 3-D autonomous system and circuit implementation

This Letter presents a new three-dimensional autonomous system with four quadratic terms. The system with five equilibrium points has complex chaotic dynamics behaviors. It can generate many different single chaotic attractors and double coexisting chaotic attractors over a large range of parameters. We observe that these chaotic attractors were rarely reported in previous work. The complex dynamical behaviors of the system are further investigated by means of phase portraits, Lyapunov exponents spectrum, Lyapunov dimension, dissipativeness of system, bifurcation diagram and Poincaré map. The physical circuit experimental results of the chaotic attractors show agreement with numerical simulations. More importantly, the analysis of frequency spectrum shows that the novel system has a broad frequency bandwidth, which is very desirable for engineering applications such as secure communications.     

A four-wing and double-wing 3D chaotic system based on sign function

Many four-wing chaotic systems have been developed based on cross product or quadratic operations. Differently, we construct a three-dimensional chaotic system generating four-wing or double-wing attractors by virtue of sign function. Dynamical properties such as equilibrium points, Poincaré map, Lyapunov exponent spectra, Hopf bifurcations and bifurcation diagrams of the system are theoretically and numerically analyzed. Results of mathematical analyses and simulation tests indicate that the proposed chaotic system can keep chaotic to generate four-wing or double-wing attractors within a large scope of parameters. The system also shows hyperchaotic behaviors in some parameter range. Besides, circuit implementation of the chaotic system is studied. That proves the system is physically realizable.

Design of output feedback controller for a unified chaotic system

In this paper, the synchronization of a unified chaotic system is investigated by the use of output feedback controllers; a two-input single-output feedback controller and single-input single-output feedback controller are presented to synchronize the unified chaotic system when the states are not all measurable. Compared with the existing results, the controllers designed in this paper have some advantages such as small feedback gain, simple structure and less conservation. Finally, numerical simulations results are provided to demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Chaos detection and control in a typical power system

In this paper, a new chaotic system is introduced. The proposed system is a conventional power network that demonstrates a chaotic behavior under special operating conditions. Some features such as Lyapunov exponents and a strange attractor show the chaotic behavior of the system, which decreases the system performance. Two different controllers are proposed to control the chaotic system. The first one is a nonlinear conventional controller that is simple and easy to construct, but the second one is developed based on the finite time control theory and optimized for faster control. A MATLAB-based simulation verifies the results.
